Alternative Idea #791
Updated by Hammel almost 4 years ago
This issue tracks interesting hardware to consider for use with PiBox and it's associated projects.
Keep this issue open and at the bottom of the highest priority list currently in progress.
# "WaveShare displays":https://www.waveshare.com/product/raspberry-pi/displays.htm for Raspberry Pi. Lots of interesting options here.
## Waveshare also have Hats and Cameras to consider.
# "Pine64 Air Mouse":https://store.pine64.org/product/pine64-air-mouse-with-keyboard/ is a keyboard shaped like a TV remote. It's way cheaper than the FAVI's I've been using though the arrow keys are Ctrl-<key> which may make it difficult to use.
# "ZeroTerminal3":https://n-o-d-e.net/zeroterminal3.html is like an old PDA that is a full computer. It's design might make it useful in Xeon.
# "Precursor":https://www.bunniestudios.com/blog/?p=5921 is like an old PDA that uses an FPGA to allow different uses. Might be useful to Xeon is ARM images are available for FPGA.
# "ESP32-CAM":https://makeradvisor.com/tools/esp32-cam/, and associated "DIY video":https://youtu.be/MKiITEsOwRA
# "BME680 breakout":https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/bme680-breakout provides temperature, pressure, humidity, and indoor air quality sensors in an small form factor using SPI.
# "PiKVM":https://github.com/pikvm/pikvm - a variation of this would be a simple network controlled power switch for multiple outlets. A single ESP32 manages a "4- or 8-port relay":https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0057OC5O8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 via an Ironman monitor.
# "Arducam":https://www.arducam.com/docs/cameras-for-raspberry-pi/mipi-camera-modules/ - mipi csi camera modules (like phone cameras) for Raspberry Pi. Might work with "raspistill":https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/usage/camera/raspicam/raspistill.md but would be better if it worked with omxplayer, ffmpeg and/or mjpeg-streamer.
